Local Organic Search

A local search is when a search engine user adds a geo-modifier such as “Seattle” to their search. For example, “Hair Salon Seattle” is a local search. The huge value to be gained in adding geo-modifying is you suddenly are turning local people who are ready to do business into immediate new customers.

Local Citations

Another important factor that affects local organic search results is citations. Citations, AKA business listings or local listings, are when your business’ contact information—name, address and phone number (NAP)—appears online. When these contact details consistently show up across a number of sites, search engines are more likely to place you higher in local search results. An added bonus of citation-building is that these local listings can also be indexed and included in search results, giving you yet another opportunity to rank.
